Very sombre times.
I thought the Police bike cops did a fantastic job escorting the hearse along the A40 from Northolt, up onto the Westway and then down through Paddington to Park Lane and then into Buckingham Palace. The three riders at the front rode in a perfect diamond formation for the entire 13 mile journey with other riders overtaking at speed every 2 or 3 minutes, and mainly on the left-hand side of the convoy, to presumably clear the approaching junctions. At the gates to the Palace, they sat on their bikes in symmetry with heads bowed whilst the hearse entered the courtyard. As I say, I thought it was very well done by the bike cops.
